We systematically investigate the phenomena of coherence resonance in time-delay coupled networks of FitzHugh-Nagumo elements in the excitable regime. Using numerical simulations, we examine the interplay of noise, time-delayed coupling and network topology in the generation of coherence resonance. In the deterministic case, we show that the delay-induced dynamics is independent of the number of nearest neighbors and the system size. In the presence of noise, we demonstrate the possibility of controlling coherence resonance by varying the time-delay and the number of nearest neighbors. For a locally coupled ring, we show that the time-delay weakens coherence resonance. For nonlocal coupling with appropriate time-delays, both enhancement and weakening of coherence resonance are possible.The FitzHugh-Nagumo system is a paradigmatic model which describes the excitability and spiking behavior of neurons. It has various applications ranging from biological processes to nonlinear electronic circuits. In the excitable regime under the influence of noise, this model exhibits the counterintuitive phenomenon of coherence resonance. It means that there exists an optimum intermediate value of the noise intensity for which noise-induced oscillations become most regular. We investigate coherence resonance in a network of delaycoupled FitzHugh-Nagumo elements with local, nonlocal and global coupling topologies. Networks with nonlocal topology are inspired by neuroscience, as they emulate the observation that strong interconnections between neurons are typical within a certain range while fewer connections exist at longer distances. We illustrate that the interaction between the network topology, the time-delay in the coupling, and the noise leads to a rich oscillatory dynamics. In particular, we demonstrate that the regularity of this dynamics is controllable, i.e., one can enhance or weaken coherence resonance by varying the coupling and delay time.
