Sensors in the electronic world are parts that are used to detect changes in the physical or chemical environment. The output from the sensor is converted into an electrical quantity that represents the changing environment. Sensors are widely used in agriculture, especially to detect changes in the physical or chemical environment associated with plant growth, for example: temperature sensors, light sensors, soil moisture sensors, and so forth. In agricultural applications that have a large area, the problem of location and distance from the sensor to the control center is a separate problem. To solve this problem, a sensor system is designed, the connection is wireless. In wireless communication system applications, there are antenna parts which are very important that can affect the rate of sending sensor data. To improve the performance of the wireless sensor in sending data, it is necessary to integrate the antenna in accordance with the sensor transceiver system. So this research was conducted to integrate linear polarization antennas with sensors to increase the gain on the transmission. From the integration then measurements are taken to get the value of the radiation pattern, gain and bandwidth. From the measurements produced it can be seen an increase in the strengthening of wireless sensor transmission for agricultural sector applications using 2.4 GHz frequency
