A novel scheme for remote preparation of an arbitrary three-qubit state using four-qubit cluster state and Bell state is proposed. The three-particle state can be perfectly prepared if the sender (Alice) performs the orthogonal complete measurement on her particles and the receiver (Bob) introduces an appropriate unitary transformation on his particles. For the two cases of remote state preparation, two different projective measurement bases are constructed at sender′s side and the corresponding success probabilities are calculated. The probability of success regarding this preparation scheme is calculated in both general and some particular cases. It is that in general such remote state preparation can be realized with a probability of 1/8. But in several special cases, the probability of success can be improved to 1/4, 1/2 or even 1.
