This work studies a low-complexity design for reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided multiuser multiple-input multiple-output systems. The base station (BS) applies receive antenna selection to connect a subset of its antennas to the available radio frequency chains. For this setting, the BS switching network, uplink precoders, and RIS phase-shifts are jointly designed, such that the uplink sum-rate is maximized. The principle design problem reduces to an NP-hard mixed-integer optimization. We hence invoke the weighted minimum mean squared error technique and the penalty dual decomposition method to develop a tractable iterative algorithm that approximates the optimal design effectively. Our numerical investigations verify the efficiency of the proposed algorithm and its superior performance as compared with the benchmark.
