followed by the conclusion in section 5. Abstract— This paper presents the design of low-noise amplifiers intended for WiMAX applications. Three low-noise amplifier topologies are implemented namely: (1) cascoded common-source amplifier‚ (2) folded cascode amplifier‚ and (3) shunt feedback amplifier. The amplifiers were implemented in a standard 90-nm CMOS process and were operated with a 1V supply voltage. Low-noise amplifier measurements were taken for parameters such as power gain‚ noise figure
