Non-Io (or Io-independent) Jupiter decameter emissions observed by the Nançay decametric array during the rising phase of solar cycle 23 (1995-2001) are studied. About 700 emissions have been recorded during that period. From the statistical studies, several conclusions were obtained. It was observed that most of emissions (~91%) are Right-Hand elliptically polarized and from the so-called "A" source (i.e. northern hemisphere and for Jovian longitude of observer in the range ~200° to 320°). The relative contributions to emissions is (in decreasing order) from sources "A", "B" (northern, 100°-200°), C (southern, 300°-400°), and D (southern, 0°-80°). Considering all emissions, the average duration is ~22 min, the average maximum frequency is ~24 MHz and the average power is ~2.4 dB above the sky background. RH emissions reach higher frequencies than LH (Left-Hand) ones. Their duration and average power are similar, but peak values are higher for RH emissions. The number of emissions roughly follows the sunspot cycle. In relation to the solar cycle variation, it was observed that Jupiter radio emissions have on the average a longer duration during the rising phase. The maximum frequency of emissions is similar on the average for all phases, but extreme values (maximum) are seen during rising and solar maximum epochs. The emissions power is higher during the rising and maximum phases (similar in both) than during solar minimum.
