Li2O–Nb2O5–TiO2 based ceramic systems have been the candidate materials for LTCC application, due to their high dielectric constant and Q × f value and controllable temperature coefficient in the microwave region. However, the sintering temperature was relatively higher (above 1100 °C) for practical application. In this study, dielectric properties of Li(1+x−y)Nb(1−x−3y)Ti(x+4y)O3 solid solution were studied with different x and y contents and among them, the Li1.0Nb0.6Ti0.5O3 composition (x = 0.1, y = 0.1) was selected, due to its reasonable dielectric properties to determine the possibility of low temperature sintering. The effects of 0.17Li2O–0.83V2O5, as a sintering agent, on sinterability and microwave dielectric properties of Li1.0Nb0.6Ti0.5O3 ceramics were investigated as a function of the sintering agent content and sintering temperature. With addition of 0.17Li2O–0.83V2O5 above 0.5 wt%, the specimens were well densified at a relatively lower temperature of 850 °C. Only slight decrease in apparent density was observed with increasing 0.17Li2O–0.83V2O5 content above 0.75 wt%. In the case of 0.5 wt% 0.17Li2O–0.83V2O5 addition, the values of dielectric constant and Q × f reached maximum. Further addition caused inferior microstructure, resulting in degraded dielectric properties. For the specimens with 0.5 wt% 0.17Li2O–0.83V2O5 sintered at 850 °C, dielectric constant, Q × f and TCF values were 64.7, 5933 GHz and 9.4 ppm per °C, respectively.
