Abstract: 
A noncomplete graph (Formula presented.) of diameter (Formula presented.) is called an antipodal (Formula presented.) -cover if its vertex set can be partitioned into the subsets (also called fibres) (Formula presented.) of (Formula presented.) vertices each, in such a way that two vertices of (Formula presented.) are at distance (Formula presented.) if and only if they belong to the same fibre. We say that (Formula presented.) is symmetric if for every (Formula presented.), there exist (Formula presented.) such that (Formula presented.), where (Formula presented.). In this paper, we prove that, for (Formula presented.), an antipodal (Formula presented.) -cover which is not a cycle, has at least (Formula presented.) vertices provided (Formula presented.), and at least (Formula presented.) vertices provided it is symmetric. Our results extend those of Göbel and Veldman.
