Theoretical analysis of random walk on percolation lattices has predicted that, at the occupied site concentrations of above the threshold value, a characteristic crossover between an initial sub-diffusion to a final classical diffusion behavior should occur. In this study, we have employed the lattice gas automata model to simulate random walk over a square 2D site-percolation lattice. Quite good result was obtained for the critical exponent of diffusion coefficient. The random walker was found to obey the anomalous sub-diffusion regime, with the exponent decreasing when the occupied site concentration decreases. The expected crossover between diffusion regimes was observed in a configuration-dependent manner, but the averaging over the ensemble of lattice configurations removed any manifestation of such crossovers. This may have been originated from the removal of short-scale inhomogeneities in percolation lattices occurring after ensemble averaging.
