Please tell me what these parameters mean.  

I'm mentally bouncing the page against a use case where we have a
broadband (500kHz or so) device that is attempting to get an allocation
in a traditionally narrowband (e.g. VHF) space where (in US) the
licenses are for 25kHz, 12.5KHz or 6.25KHz.  The broadband device would
need multiple narrowband allocations all cheek-by-jowl.  

A lot of the VHF space is allocated, but a good deal is not used much.
For example, in the county where I live, the county has over 200
narrowband VHF licenses.  At some time in the future, it's entirely
conceivable that white space governance could extend into this area ...
beyond the existing mindset of TV spectrum.

How would such a broadband device request a chunk of broadband spectrum?
Can it be expressed with these parameters?  Is PAWS at least extensible
to accommodate such a request in the future?
