Two deterministic schemes are proposed to realize the assisted clone of an unknown four-particle entangled clustertype state.The schemes include two stages.The first stage requires teleportation via maximal entanglement as the quantum channel.In the second stages of the protocols,two novel sets of mutually orthogonal basis vectors are constructed.With the assistance of the preparer through a four-particle or two-step two-particle projective measurement under these bases,the perfect copy of an original state can be produced.Comparing with the previous protocols which produce the unknown state and its orthogonal complement state at the site of the sender,the proposed schemes generate the unknown state deterministically.
