| contents | This paper investigates the secrecy performance of pinching-antenna systems (PAS) under practical pinching-position activation uncertainty. By dynamically selecting the radiation point along a dielectric waveguide, PAS enables low-cost spatial reconfigurability and enhanced secure transmission. Unlike existing studies that assume ideal activation control, we account for spatial inaccuracies caused by hardware limitations and environmental perturbations, which induce statistical dependence between the legitimate and eavesdropping channels. To capture this effect, a copula-based framework is employed to model the joint distribution of the corresponding signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), and approximate expressions for the secrecy outage probability (SOP) are derived. Simulation results validate the theoretical findings and demonstrate that PAS retains robust secrecy performance compared with conventional fixed-antenna systems, even in the presence of activation uncertainty. |
