We study the effect of time-periodic coupling strength on the spiking coherence of Newman-Watts networks of Hodgkin-Huxley(HH) neurons with non-Gaussian noise.It is found that the spiking can exhibit coherence resonance(CR) when the extent of deviation of non-Gaussian noise from Gaussian noise and the amplitude of the coupling strength are varied.In particular,coherence bi-resonance(CBR) is observed when the frequency of the coupling strength is varied,and the CBR is always observed when the frequency is equal to,or a multiple of,the spiking period,manifesting as the locking between the frequencies of the spiking and the coupling strength.The results show that a time-periodic coupling strength may play a more constructive and efficient role in enhancing the spiking coherence of the neuronal networks than a constant coupling strength.These findings provide insight into the role of time-periodic coupling strength for enhancing the time precision of information processing in neuronal networks.
