implicitly contains the following.
Let $DEL$ be the graph on the nonisotropic points in $U(6,2 sup 2 )$,
where two points are adjacent when joined by a tangent.
The universal cover $DEL hat$ of $DEL$ (among the covers that are
locally isomorphisms) is a distance-transitive antipodal 4-cover
with parameters $"{"176,135,36,1;1,12,135,176"}"$ and
automorphism group $2 sup 2 . U(6,2) . Sym (3)$.
The graph $DEL$ also has a distance-transitive antipodal 2-cover

automorphism group $2 . U(6,2) . 2$.

Let $q sup 2 = m r + 1$ for some prime power $q$, and let $V$
be a vector space of dimension 3 over $F = Ff sub { q sup 2 }$
provided with a nondegenerate Hermitean form $H$.
Let $K$ be the subgroup of index $r$ of the multiplicative group $F star$,
and choose $b mo F star$ such that $b K = b bar K$ (i.e., such that
$b sup q-1 mo K$).
Define a graph $GAM$ with vertex set $"{" K v vb v mo V minus "{"0"}" "}"$
where $K u adj K v$ if and only if $H(u,v) mo b K$.
Then $GAM$ is an antipodal $r$-cover of the complete graph
$K sub { q sup 3 + 1 }$. The graph $GAM$ is distance-regular
if and only if one of the following three conditions hold.
.IP (i)
.I
$r$ is odd and $r vb (q-1)$,

$q$ is even and $r vb (q+1)$,
.IP (iii)

In case (i) we have $lam = mu = (q sup 3 - 1)/r$;
in cases (ii) and (iii) we find
$lam = (q+1)m - q(q-1)$ and $mu = (q+1)m$.

.B Proof.
Everything is clear except for distance-regularity.
(The vertices $K u$ contained in the same projective point
$F u$ are antipodes: they have mutual distance at least 3,
and in fact precisely three, as we shall see soon.)
The group $GU (3,q sup 2 )$ acts transitively on the vertices
and edges, and 2-transitively on the projective points $F u$
($u mo V minus "{"0"}"$). For distance-regularity it is
necessary and sufficient that $mu$ is constant. Thus,
let $K u$ and $K v$ be two vertices not contained in the same
projective point, and choose coordinates such that ...

.I
Let $q = 2 sup 2t-1$ and $s = 2 sup e$, where $gcd(e,2t-1) = 1$.
Construct a graph $GAM$ whose vertices are the triples $(a,i, alpha )$
with $a, alpha mo Ff sub q$ and $i mo Ff sub 2$,
and in which $(a,i, alpha ) adj (b,j, beta )$ when $alpha + beta =
a sup s b + a b sup s + (i+j)(a sup s+1 + b sup s+1 )$.
Then $GAM$ is distance-regular with intersection array
$"{"2q-1,2q-2,1;~1,2,2q-1"}"$.
Taking the quotient w.r.t. $"{"0"}" times "{"0"}" times A$,
where $A$ is a subgroup of the additive group of $Ff sub q$,
yields a distance-regular graph $GAM bar$ with intersection array
$"{"2q-1,2q-2 sup i ,1;~1,2 sup i ,2q-1"}"$
when $vb A vb = 2 sup i-1$ ($1 <= i <= 2t-1$).

Let $V$ be a vector space of dimension 3 over the field $Ff sub q$,
provided with an outer product $times$.
Let $GAM$ be the graph with vertex set $V times V$ where
$(u,u prime ) adj (v,v prime )$ if and only if
$(u,u prime ) != (v,v prime )$ and $u times v + u prime - v prime = 0$.
Then $GAM$ is distance-regular with intersection array
$"{"q sup 3 - 1, q sup 3 - q, q sup 3 - q sup 2 + 1 ;~ hyph
1, q, q sup 2 - 1 "}"$.
Its extended bipartite double is distance-regular with intersection array
$"{"q sup 3 , q sup 3 - 1, q sup 3 - q, q sup 3 - q sup 2 + 1;~ hyph
1, q, q sup 2 - 1, q sup 3 "}"$ and was first constructed by
D. Pasechnik [email, March 1991].
When $q$ is a power of two, these graphs have the same parameters as
certain Kasami graphs, but for $q > 2$ they are nonisomorphic.
