According to 3GPP, 5G RAN Sharing follow 4G, which includes MORAN and MOCN . The differences between MOCN and MORAN

MOCN ：Co-AAU Co-Baseband Board Co-MPT Co-EMS BBU configuration rules: 1、MOCN shares the one cell, one cell must be configured in ONE Baseband board. 2、For ONE hardware（ AAU/RRU），it can only managed by ONE EMS. 3、If ONE RF hardware (AAU/RRU) is connected to different BBUs, inter-BBU Interconnection is needed(CI interface) to keep sync. and control between BBUs.

MORAN1：Co-AAU Co-EMS Separated-Baseband board BBU configuration rules: 1、PLMN_A and PLMN_B have different cells, Same RAT cells must be configured in ONE Control board; Different RAT Cell can have different Control board or same one. 2、For ONE hardware（ AAU /RRU）,it can only managed by ONE EMS. 3、If ONE RF hardware (AAU/RRU) is connected to different BBUs, inter-BBU Interconnection is needed(CI interface) to keep sync. and control between BBUs. 4 、Different cells can be configured on different BBP, Co-BBP or separated BBP are both available.
