The present disclosure relates to an information transmission method, which is applicable to a user equipment, the method includes: when a beam failure recovery procedure is initiated for a first cell, a random access is initiated to a base station by a second cell, where the second cell is the first cell or another cell other than the first cell; if the number of times of the random access is upto a preset number of times and the random access is not completed, to a base station, the indication information is used to indicate the reason why the problem exists in the cell group and the reasonis a failure of the random access caused by the initiation of the beam failure recovery process. According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the reason that the indication of the cell group indicates that the cell group has a problem is the failure of the random access caused by the beam failure recovery process, so that the base station can define the reason for the random access failure to ensure that the subsequent configuration of the base station is reasonable.
