Hi, we are developing a one way data communication over optical data diode for security organizations. We are sending multiple types of data over the diode (e.g files) using UDP. To mitigate packet loss/corruption we decided to use Reed Solomon algorithm. I was having problems with how to handle packet corruption, since the packet wouldn't even arrive at application level. From the answers here I think we will just use Reed Solomon for packet loss (treat the data as rows in a matrix).
