Abstract
This paper proposes a federated learning-based decision making framework for sustainable irrigation using IoT and dew-edge-cloud paradigm. The federated learning is used to prevent the sharing of user identities and raw data for data privacy protection. Further, gradient encryption is used to prevent the leakage of gradient information. Long short-term memory (LSTM) network and deep neural network (DNN) are used for data analysis in local and global models. Edge computing is used to reduce energy consumption and latency. The cache-based dew computing is used to provide temporary holding of the data when network connectivity is not available. The results present that the proposed framework achieves ~99% prediction accuracy at ~50% lower latency and energy consumption than the conventional edge-cloud framework.
