This paper investigates the performance gains obtained by combining network coding and rate diversity gains in wireless environment. Network coding is a new research area which has a lot of interesting applications in practical networking systems. Link rate diversity provides another degree of freedom in wireless environment. Using network coding, intermediate nodes broadcast packets that are linear combinations of previously received information. Opportunistic networks are one another research area in which researchers are more interested in. In these type of networks nodes are able to communicate with other nodes even there is not a route connecting them. So opportunistic routing will open a new direction in MANET. In this paper we develop a new opportunistic routing strategy and which is used as the routing protocol for the proposed concept.
