The Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) is an international radio telescope array,
consisting of 38 stations in the Netherlands and 14 international stations
spread over Europe. Here we present an observation method to study the jovian
decametric radio emissions from several LOFAR stations (here DE604, FR606 and
IE613), at high temporal and spectral resolution. This method is based on
prediction tools, such as radio emission simulations and probability maps, and
data processing. We report an observation of Io-induced decametric emission
from June 2021, and a first case study of the substructures that compose the
macroscopic emissions (called millisecond bursts). The study of these bursts
make it possible to determine the electron populations at the origin of these
emissions. We then present several possible future avenues for study based on
these observations. The methodology and study perspectives described in this
paper can be applied to new observations of jovian radio emissions induced by
Io, but also by Ganymede or Europa, or jovian auroral radio emissions.
