Popis:	The development of well-devised irrigation scheduling methods is desirable from the perspectives of plant quality and water conservation. In this article, a model predictive control (MPC) with discrete actuators is developed for irrigation scheduling, where a long short-term memory (LSTM) model of the soil-water-atmosphere system is used to evaluate the objective of ensuring optimal water uptake in crops while minimizing total water consumption and irrigation costs. A heuristic method involving a sigmoid function is used in this framework to enhance the computational efficiency of the scheduler. The scheduling scheme is applied to homogeneous and spatially variable fields and the results indicate that the LSTM-based MPC with discrete actuators is able to prescribe optimal or near-optimal irrigation schedules that are typical of irrigation practice.
