INTRODUCTION In the recent years, the wireless communication system become the main type of communication in the world [1]. The field of Radio Frequency (RF) design is a growing one as a result of increased demand for wireless products. The FSK modulator or demodulator is one of RF system that becomes the most important part and extremely advanced with the involvement of microwave active and passive circuits [1]. WiMAX, which is short for Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, is a novel wireless communication technology. It is an attractive technology due to the high transmitting speed (up to 70Mbps) and long transmitting distance (up to 30 mile). The system bases on IEEE 802.16 standards and uses several bands (2.3-2.7 GHz, 3.4-3.6 GHz and 5.1-5.8GHz) to transmit data. The design of the front-end low noise amplifier (LNA) is one of the challenges in radio frequency (RF) receivers, which needs to provide good input impedance match, enough power gain and low noise figure (NF) within the required band [2], [8]. Many high gain amplifier topologies have been proposed as a way to satisfy the requirement for low power dissipation as well as good performances. The cascode techniques to produces results in a higher bandwidth and gain, due to the increase in the output impedance, as well as better isolation between the input and output ports [3], [7]. 2. LITERATURE REVIEW Basically, microwave transmitters start with a carrier generator and a series of amplifier. It also includes a modulator followed by more stages of power amplification time. The final power amplifier applies the signal to the transmission line and antenna. A transmitter arrangement could have a mixer used to up-
