The problems of stability analysis and controllers design for discrete-time linear systems subject to state saturation nonlinearities are investigated in this paper. Both full state saturation and partial state saturation are considered. It is well known to all that the controller design problem under state saturation is very difficult and complex to deal with. In order to overcome the difficulty, a new and tractable system is constructed, and it can be proved that the constructed system is with the same domain of attraction as the original system. With the aid of this property, to estimate the domain of attraction of the original system, an LMI-based method is presented for estimating the domain of attraction of the origin for the new constructed system under state saturation. Further, two optimization algorithms are developed for constructing dynamic output-feedback controllers and state feedback controllers, respectively, which guarantee that the domain of attraction of the origin for the closed-loop system is as 'large' as possible. An example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new method.
