This paper proposes two novel wireless transmission schemes, namely reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted received adaptive spatial modulation (RASM) scheme and RIS-assisted received adaptive space shift keying (RASSK) scheme, designed to enhance spectral efficiency (SE) and physical layer security (PLS). In both proposed schemes, transmitting bits are dynamically mapped at receive antennas by leveraging the characteristics of the RIS in each time slot, which enables the enhancement of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at specific selected antennas with nearly few power, thus leading to a reliable and green wireless communication. Unlike conventional fixed-antenna RIS-RSM/GSSK, the term ``adaptive'' indicates the number of active antennas dynamically changes per symbol, conveying extra spatial information to break existing spectral efficiency bottlenecks.This adaptive approach facilitates the conveyance of extra bits to the receiver, which means it needs less cost of radio-frequency chains at transmitter while improving SE. Besides, the proposed schemes offer an inherent PLS security advantage, as the eavesdropper is unable to completely detect signals reflected from the RIS. To comprehensively evaluate the performance of the proposed RASM and RASSK schemes, this paper presents a detailed analytical performance of their spectral efficiency, detection complexity, bit error rate, and secrecy rate, which are accompanied by insightful findings and conclusions. Simulation and analytical results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed schemes, showcasing their improved error performance and robustness against wiretapping, while also highlighting the potential of the RASM and RASSK schemes for future wireless applications.
