Abstract: We have introduced excluded volume effect, which is an important factor to model a realistic pedestrian queue, into queueing theory. The probability distributions of pedestrian number and pedestrian waiting time in a queue have been calculated exactly. Due to time needed to close up the queue, the mean number of pedestrians increases as pedestrian arrival probability ($lambda$) and leaving probability ($mu$) increase even if the ratio between them (i.e., $ho=lambda/mu$) remains constant. Furthermore, at a given $ho$, the mean waiting time does not increase monotonically with the service time (which is inverse to $mu$), a minimum could be reached instead.
