Noun: A wireless communication mode that allows devices within approximately 15 feet of each other to exchange information. In the case of the PSP, it allows two or more people who have PSPs and a game that supports ad hoc play to play a game together ("multiplayer"). The same screen will appear on all PSPs, as long as players remain in the game and within range of each other.

You can see whether a game supports ad-hoc mode by looking at the back of the game packaging to see if there is a text box that says "Wi-Fi compatible (ad-hoc)".
Some games allow a PSP owner who does not own the game to download a demo from a PSP owner who does own the game. This is different from ad hoc games; this is done via Gamesharing.
