Paddle tennis is officially known as Platform Tennis. It is generally a cold weather sport played outdoors on a raised platform (smaller than a tennis court) surrounded by wire screens. It is permitted to play a ball bouncing off the screens. 

See the APTA (American Platform Tennis Association) website for more details.

A paddle racquet and paddle balls. Make sure you are buying a platform tennis racquet and not a padel racquet.

No, again different courts, paddles and balls. See APTA website.
