In this paper, we compare the performance of space-time coding schemes based on the recently proposal jacket transform and quasi-orthogonal (QO) designs over multiple-input single-output (MISO) point-to-point and equivalent distributed, two-hop, systems. In the comparison over both frequency flat and frequency selective channels the total transmit power is fixed and uncoded quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) transmission is used. Simulation studies in terms of bit error rate confirm that the closed-loop QO designs yields the best performance and that the jacket transform has worse performance than all open-loop QO designs, and therefore its suitability for space-time code design for four transmit antennas is limited.
