Abstract

Example information transmission methods, control apparatuses, electromagnetic signal transceiver apparatuses, and signal processing devices are disclosed. One example information transmission method is applied to a control apparatus that includes a first processor and a second processor. The example information transmission method includes obtaining first fault information of an electromagnetic signal transceiver apparatus by the first processor through a first channel. Second fault information of the electromagnetic signal transceiver apparatus is obtained by the second processor. The second fault information is from the electromagnetic signal transceiver apparatus and is transmitted through a second channel. The first fault information corresponds to a first fault, and the second fault information corresponds to a second fault.
