Explanation

A cellular mobile hotspot creates a Personal Area Network (PAN) - a small, person-centric wireless network typically spanning only a few meters. It connects the user's personal devices (phone, tablet, laptop) together through one individual's cellular data connection. A LAN covers a building, a WAN covers large geographic distances, and a MAN covers a city-wide area. The hotspot's broadcast zone is confined to personal use, making it a PAN.
