Thanks a lot!!

which type of RF ,
if it is discrete "board level" the best simulation tools @DS and MWO
if in integrated "chip level" u have @DS and $pectre

Microwave office is a user freindly software for rf engineers
pozar's book microwave engineering is a good start.

@DS is a very good software for rf designer.
Thomas H.Lee's book,the design of CMOS Radio-frequency Integrated circuits is good too.

Fundamental of Microwace Engineering by Collins

and read many books , i think it need a great efforts to study RF

I suggest you to read this book:
RF Microelectronic by: Behzad Razavi
It's available in this site.
