The effect of sintering temperature, sintering time and forming pressure on microwave dielectric properties of (Zr1-xSnx)TiO4 ceramics containing 1.0wt% B2O3, 0.3 wt% La2O3 and 1.0wt% NiTa2O6 was investigated using the response surface methodology. The optimum values of processing variables were determined based on the reproducibility. The optimum values of the dielectric constant of >35. Q.f0 of >55000 and $\tau$f=$\pm$5 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ could be obtained when the sample was pressed at 500~600kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and sintered at 1500~155$0^{\circ}C$ for 2~3 hrs.
