Microwave dielectric properties of $MgTiO_3,;MgWO_4,;MgNb_2O_6$, and $MgTa_2O_6$ were investigated based on the structural characteristics. The dielectric constant (K) was dependent on the dielectric polarizabilities of the specimens, and the deviation of the observed dielectric polarizabilities (${alpha}_{obs.}$) from the theoretical dielectric polarizabilities (${alpha}_{theo.}$) were decreased with increasing of Mg-site bond valence. Quality factors (Qf) were affected by the sharing type of $MgO_6$ and $BO_6$ octahedra. Temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (TCF) was decreased with increasing of average octahedral distortion.
