For rfic, active inductors using BJT or MOSTs might be used.
But how to simulate the Q of active inductor?
Thanks!
 

Do a S-parameter analysis in cadence and then use calculator, then in the calculator type,

imag(ZP(1 1))/real(ZP(1 1))

The setup should be one end is connected to the port and the other end is grounded.

Regards,
Prakash.
