I can't find out any design issue in your post.

Your question is no more than issue related to specific vendor's tool.
Please post such issue to Simulator's board not Design's board.

Previously you posted similar question in the following.

I appended "Agilent ADS designkit : TSMC0.18um version 5 (tsmc_rfcmos018_v5a.rar)" in the following.

If you mean Cadence Generic PDK which is not a Foundry specific PDK, GPDK180(.18um) contains RF model MOSFET as well as inductor.

Agilent provide "RFIC Flow Workshop" for RFDE and GoldenGate using Cadence GPDK180.
