In the paper, we investigate the phenomenon of stochastic resonance of a system with finite locally coupled linear elements driven by multiplicative dichotomous noise and temporal periodic signal. It is shown that, for some suitably selected values of the parameters, with increasing the size of the system or the coupling among the nearest elements, the stochastic resonance phenomenon can be enhanced; while for some other suitably selected parameters' values, with the increase of the size or the coupling, the phenomenon of stochastic resonance can be weakened. Our results can provide some useful insights for the investigation of the stochastic resonance phenomenon of the systems with locally (or globally) coupled finite (or infinite) elements.
