Explanation

A Personal Area Network (PAN) is a short-range network connecting devices in close proximity, and Bluetooth is the primary technology used to create a PAN. For two devices to pair and communicate over Bluetooth, the device being connected to must have Bluetooth discovery (also called 'discoverable mode') enabled so the other device can detect and initiate a connection with it. Wi-Fi, 3G, and location services are not required for a Bluetooth PAN.
