Safdar,

Its possible that with the rates you posted for your transform and your setting of the transform_tolerance parameter on the costmap, that things are timing out. Can you post a couple of examples of the full "Costmap2dROS transform timeout" error along with the configuration files that you're using to bring up the navigation stack. Those two things should help track this down.

Hope all is well,

Eitan

Hi Enea Scioni,
Thanks for so detailed answer: I followed your instruction and just
experimented again, following are the findings:
RosAria:
First RosAria is a node which enables us to move Real Robot (poineer P3DX),
It subscribes a topic /cmd_vel with geometry_msgs/Twist message.
some code from RosAria:
{
 pos = robot->getPose();
 tf::poseTFToMsg(tf::Pose(tf::Quaternion(pos.getTh()*M_PI/180, 0, 0),
tf::Vector3(pos.getX(), pos.getY(), 0)),
 position.pose.pose);
 position.twist.twist.linear.x = robot->getVel();
 position.twist.twist.angular.z = robot->getRotVel()*M_PI/180;
 position.header.frame_id = "odom";
 position.header.stamp = ros::Time::now();
 pose_pub.publish(position);
 ROS_INFO("rcv: %f %f %f p.x: %f p.y: %f", position.header.stamp.toSec(),
(double) position.twist.twist.linear.x,
 (double)   position.twist.twist.angular.z, (double) pos.getX(), (double)
pos.getY());
 ros::Duration(1e-3).sleep();
   tf::Quaternion laserQ;
   laserQ.setRPY(0.0, 0.0, pos.getTh());
   tf::Transform txLaser =  tf::Transform(laserQ,tf::Point(0.05, 0.0,
0.15));
   tf.sendTransform(tf::StampedTransform(txLaser, ros::Time::now(),
"base_link", "laser"));//"base_laser_link"));
   tf::Transform txIdentity(tf::createIdentityQuaternion(),
                            tf::Point(0.0, 0.0, 0.0));
   tf.sendTransform(tf::StampedTransform(txIdentity,
                                         ros::Time::now(),
                                         "base_footprint",
                                         "base_link"));
   tf::Quaternion odomQ;
    tf::quaternionMsgToTF(position.pose.pose.orientation, odomQ);
   tf::Transform txOdom(odomQ, tf::Point((double) pos.getX()/1000.0,
(double) pos.getY()/1000.0, pos.getTh()/*0.0*/));
   tf.sendTransform(tf::StampedTransform(txOdom, ros::Time::now() ,"odom",
"base_footprint"));
  clockMsg.clock = ros::Time::now();
  clock_pub.publish(clockMsg);
}
I run this node using [$rosrun ROSARIA RosAria _port:=/dev/ttyUSB0] then
this node starts and subscribes the topic /cmd_vel. Then I run my own made
node [$rosrun ROSARIA rob_key] which publishes geometry_msgs/Twist taking
commands by arrow keys of keyboard.

Frames:
I checked frames by [$rosrun tf view_frames],  the frame's sequence is
correct and quite according to how you said, i.e.
with names and sequence : /map->/odom->/base_footprint->base_link->/laser
shown in frames.pdf.
map->odom : Broadcaster: /amcl , Average rate: 4.890 Hz, Most recent
transform: 0.155 sec old, Buffer length: 4.908 sec
odom->base_footprnt:Broadcaster:/RosAria,Average rate:10.204 Hz,Most recent
transform: 0.063 sec old,Buffer length: 4.900 sec
base_footprnt->base_link:same as above for odom->base_footprint
base_link->laser:same as above for base_footprint-> base_link

Sequence of the nodes I run:
1.$roscore
2.$rosrun ROSARIA RosAria _port:=/dev/ttyUSB0
3.$rosrun sicktoolbox_wrapper sicklms _port:=/dev/ttyUSB1 _baud:=38400
get message DataStream Received.
4.$roslaunch amcl_diff.launch  from amcl/axamples> directory.
get message

THEN I MOVE ROBOT:
Moving Robot almost 1 meter in forward direction:
Starting till ending 1 meter motion of Robot ,I saved data from topics
/odom, /scan, /amcl_pose and /particlecloud as given below:
