Wifi hotspot via 3g mobile

[tanchnewayll]

If I have a good 3g phone with Wifi direct and all. Can I use it as a Wifi hotspot with my ipad on the go? My phone 3g will work on my Wifi only ipad?

Well it would. But it would kill the battery quite fast. And if used for longer hours, is likely to shorten the life of the phone as well.
You do not need Wi-Fi Direct or anything. Almost all Android phones offer Wireless hotspot capabilities. I am guessing they use 3G to fetch data and the Wi-Fi to broadcast it :

Heat. Wear and tear. Mobile phones are not designed to be used as modems.
