The small delay approximation is used to deduce the steady-state probability distribution and the effective potential function is derived. The system parameters l and b, time delay τ, feedback strength β can change the shapes of the potential function. The mean first-passage time (MFPT) is calculated, which plays an extremely important role in the research of particles escape. And the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the system can be obtained by using the adiabatic approximation theory. The phenomenon of stochastic resonance is investigated under different system parameters and time-delayed feedback. The amplitude of SNR can be changed by adjusting the system parameters. When the feedback strength β is positive (or negative), the time delay τ can promote (or suppress) the stochastic resonance phenomenon. The SNR versus the noise intensity D presents the stochastic resonance phenomenon. In addition, the SNR increases non-monotonically with the increasing feedback strength β and the parameter b. Also, the analysis and numerical simulation results of SNR are in good agreement with the formula simulation.
