Motivated by the previous work on the fermion resonances on symmetric thick branes [Phys. Rev. D 80, 065020 (2009)], we extend the idea to the Kalb-Ramond (KR) resonances on the asymmetric thick branes. The localization and resonance of the KR field on symmetric and asymmetric thick branes are investigated in detail. In order to analyze the effect of scalar and KR field interaction on the spectrum of KR field Kaluza-Klein modes, we introduce a coupling between the background kink field and KR field, and find that there exist some resonant modes. In the case of a symmetric brane, we seek the resonances by using both the relative probability and transfer matrix methods, and show the consistency of results with the two methods. While for the asymmetric case, it is found that we can only apply one of the above two methods, i.e., the transfer matrix method, which reveals that the asymmetry reduces the number of the resonant modes of the KR field.
