Basically I wanted to know that how this communication system influences the life style of insects and other organisms found in that very area. This question is associated from behavioral ecology and environment.

Those signals are used in many groups by predators or parasites in locating a necessary food source. See : Lakes-Harlan, R., H. Stölting, and T.E. Moore. Phonotactic behavior of a parasitoid fly (Emblemasoma auditrix, Diptera, Sarcophagidae) in response to the calling song of its host cicada (Okanagana rimosa, Homoptera, Cicadidae).

Hi,
there is a nice piece of work showing that the noise produced by orthopteran communication leads bats to shift upwards the frequency of their echolocation calls. You may find the paper at the link below. I hope this helps.
Best wishes
