Beamforming techniques use massive antenna arrays to formulate narrow Line-of-Sight signal sectors to address the increased signal attenuation in millimeter Wave (mmWave). However, traditional sector selection schemes involve extensive searches for the highest signal-strength sector, introducing extra latency and communication overhead. This paper introduces a dynamic layer-wise and clustering-based federated learning (FL) algorithm for beam sector selection in autonomous vehicle networks called enhanced Dynamic Adaptive FL (eDAFL). The algorithm detects and selects the most important layers of a machine learning model for aggregation in the FL process, significantly reducing network overhead and failure risks. eDAFL also considers intra-cluster and inter-cluster approaches to reduce overfitting and increase the abstraction level. We evaluate eDAFL on a real-world multi-modal dataset, demonstrating improved model accuracy by approximately 6.76% compared to existing methods, while reducing inference time by 84.04% and model size by up to 52.20%.
