, The authors study the semi-global edge-consensus of linear discrete-time multi-agent systems subject to edge state positive constraint and input saturation. By virtue of the positive system theory and low-gain feedback method, the distributed control protocols for undirected and directed networks are designed to guarantee the non-negative edge-consensus with input saturation. Then, sufficient conditions, which can guarantee the edge-consensus together with keeping the positive edge state constraint and avoiding the input saturation, are provided. Finally, two examples are presented to verify the theoretical results.
