This paper proposes enhancements to receiver performance by tuning the most critical parameters of the generated pulses as pulse modulations and frame timing structure. These parameters are significant influences on the performance of the receiver. This performance can be described as the probability of the lost packet using the signal-to-noise ratio in varying distances and data rate scenarios. The method used to validate the achievements of the enhancements of the receiver performance is usually defined as proposing a communication link of a certain pulse-based wireless system where initially the physical parameters are set as reference parameters. Consequently, tuning each parameter separately to determine the enhancements of the receiver performance in different data rates and distances. Results indicated that the performance could be enhanced significantly in terms of the received signal errors for specific signal noise to power ratio with approximately up to 50% by tuning some physical parameters that significantly affect received signal quality. Tuning these parameters allows enhanced performance for certain scenarios and application requirements.
