contents We study, in Part I of this series, boundedness and global existence of positive classical solutions to a parabolic-elliptic chemotaxis system with signal-dependent sensitivity and a logistic-type source on a bounded smooth domain $Ω\subset\mathbb{R}^N$: \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \displaystyle u_t=Δu-χ_0\nabla\cdot\left(\frac{u^m}{(1+v)^β}\nabla v\right)+au-bu^{1+α}, & x\inΩ, \cr \displaystyle 0=Δv-μv+νu^γ, & x\inΩ, \cr \displaystyle \frac{\partial u}{\partial n}=\frac{\partial v}{\partial n}=0, & x\in\partialΩ. \end{cases} \end{equation*} Here, $u$ denotes the population density and $v$ the chemical concentration. The parameters $α,γ,m,μ,ν$ are positive, $χ_0$ is real, and $a,b,β$ are nonnegative. We analyze boundedness from three viewpoints: negative chemotaxis ($χ_0<0$), the strength of the nonlinear cross diffusion rate $\frac{u^m}{(1+v)^β}$, and the strength of the logistic-type damping $u(a-bu^α)$. Under explicit conditions reflecting these mechanisms, all positive classical solutions remain bounded. Moreover, when $m\ge 1$, boundedness implies global existence. Although the decay of $χ(v) = \dfrac{χ_0}{(1+v)^β}$ for large $v$ has a damping effect, it also introduces new analytical difficulties; our techniques yield, for example, global existence for $m=1$ provided that \begin{equation*} β>\max\left\{1,\frac12+\frac{χ_0}{4}\max\{2,γN\}\right\}. \end{equation*} Several known results for special cases are recovered. Part II is devoted to the asymptotic behavior of globally defined solutions, including uniform persistence as well as stability and bifurcation of positive constant equilibria.
