determine one or more secondary users in the first power limited zone that may share the spectrum resources for the wireless communications.

2. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to limit, based on a communication quality requirement of the primary wireless communications system, an emitting power of the one or more secondary users in the first power limited zone.

3. The electronic apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
calculate, based on the communication quality requirement of the primary wireless communications system, a first maximum interference power acceptable to the first primary user, and
calculate, based on the first maximum interference power, a first maximum allowable emitting power for each of the one or more secondary users located in the first power limited zone.

4. The electronic apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the processing circuitry is configured to:
allocate, in a case of ensuring that maximum cumulative interferences caused by the one or more secondary users to the first primary user do not exceed the first maximum interference power, a maximum interference power that each of the one or more secondary users is respectively capable of producing to the first primary user, and
calculate, based on the allocated maximum interference power, the first maximum allowable emitting power for each of the one or more secondary users.

5. The electronic apparatus according to claim 4 ,
wherein the processing circuitry is configured to allocate the first maximum interference power equally among the one or more secondary users, or
wherein the processing circuitry is configured to allocate the first maximum interference power based on types or power adjustment capabilities of each of the one or more secondary users.

6. The electronic apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:
determine a second power limited zone for a second primary user of the spectrum resources for wireless communications in the primary wireless communications system,
