We have simulated HADEEPS and HALBPS for different deployments. We have focused on the energy heterogeneity and present a set of distributed algorithm for scheduling sensors, adjust the transmission or sensing ranges of sensor node and implementing a heterogeneous energy model to enhance the complete lifetime of WSNs. We have two dimensional sensor node networks with known initial energy and sensor and target positions and they are randomly distributed in different forms such as triangular, square and hexagonal. These arrays of sensors are compared using two approaches HADEEPS and HALBPS in terms of lifetime for heterogeneous networks. The simulations results indicate the overall network lifetime significantly improve with both HADEEPS and HALBPS protocols in case of triangular deployment for linear and quadratic energy models. Finally, we have simulated the Energy Efficient Data gathering Protocol for Adjustable Range Sensing with Heterogeneity (AEEDPSH) and Data gathering Load Balancing Protocol for Adjustable Range Sensing with Heterogeneity (ADLBPSH) for the different adjustable sensing ranges.
