The use of '''multi-operator radio access networks''' ('''MORANs'''), also known as '''radio access network sharing''', is a way for multiple mobile telephone network operators to share radio access network infrastructure. <ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.adl.com/uploads/tx_extthoughtleadership/ADL_RAN_Cooperation.pdf|title=The New Reality of Network Cooperation|publisher=Arthur D.
