Opportunistic networking aims at exploiting sporadic radio links to improve the connectivity of multihop networks and to foster data transmissions. The broadcast nature of wireless channels is an important feature that can be exploited to improve transmissions by using several potential receivers. Opportunistic relaying is thus the first brick for opportunistic networking. However the advantage of opportunistic relaying may be degraded due to energy increase related to having multiple active receivers. This paper proposes a thorough analysis of opportunistic relaying efficiency under different realistic radio channel conditions. The study is intended to find the best tradeoff between two objectives energy and latency minimizations with a hard reliability constraint. We derive an optimal bound namely the Pareto front of the related optimization problem which offers a good insight into the benefits of opportunistic routings compared with classical multihop routing schemes. Meanwhile the lower bound provides a framework to .
