Stochastic geometry provides a powerful analytical framework for evaluating interference-limited cellular networks with randomly deployed base stations (BSs). While prior studies have examined limited channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT) and low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) separately, their joint impact in multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems remains largely unexplored. This paper investigates a downlink cellular network in which BSs are distributed according to a homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP), employing zero-forcing beamforming (ZFBF) with limited feedback, and receivers are equipped with one-bit ADCs. We derive a tractable approximation for the achievable spectral efficiency that explicitly accounts for both the quantization error from limited feedback and the receiver distortion caused by coarse ADCs. Based on this approximation, we determine the optimal feedback rate that maximizes the net spectral efficiency. Our analysis reveals that the optimal number of feedback bits scales logarithmically with the channel coherence time but its absolute value decreases due to coarse quantization. Simulation results validate the accuracy of the proposed approximation and confirm the predicted scaling behavior, demonstrating its effectiveness for interference-limited multi-user MIMO networks.
