An active stylus, a touch sensor, and a signal transmission and sensing method are provided. The active stylus comprises: an integrated circuit (IC) and a transmitting circuit. The IC comprises: a first modulator, a second modulator, and a mixer. The first modulator is utilized for modulating a first signal with a first frequency to generate a first frequency modulated signal. The second modulator is utilized for modulating a second signal with a second frequency to generate a second frequency modulated signal. The mixer is coupled to the first modulator and the second modulator, and utilized for mixing the first frequency modulated signal and the second frequency modulated signal to generate a mixed signal having the first frequency and the second frequency. The transmitting circuit is coupled to the IC, and utilized for transmitting the mixed signal to the touch sensor.
