The result of this exact phase relationship is that msk cant practically be generated with a voltage controlled oscillator and a digital waveform. The proper demodulation of bpsk requires the signal to be compared to a sine carrier of the same phase. One way to communicate a message signal whose frequency spectrum does not fall within that fixed frequency range, or one that is otherwise unsuitable for the channel, is to alter a transmittable signal according to the information in your message signal.
