Base station (BS) cooperative transmission, also known as coordinated multi-point transmission (CoMP), is an effective way to avoid inter-cell interference in universal frequency reuse cellular systems. To gain the promised benefit, however, huge feedback overhead is in demand to gather the channel information. In this paper, we analyze the impact of channel asymmetry, which is inherent in CoMP systems, on downlink BS cooperative transmission with limited feedback. We analyze the per-user rate loss of a multi-user CoMP system led by quantization. Per-cell quantization of multicell channels is considered, which quantizes the local channel and cross channel separately and is more feasible in practice. From both the analytical and simulation results, we provide a whole picture on various critical factors that lead to the performance loss. Specifically, we show that the per user rate loss led by limited feedback depends on the location of its paired users, except for relying on its own signal to noise ratio and the quantization errors as in single cell multi-user multiple antenna systems. This implies that the quantization accuracy required for local and cross channel of each user depends on the locations of its own as well as its paired users.
