What package to use for navigation on phyisical robot using wheel encoders

I want to implement navigation to my physical robot using only wheel encoders.

I don't need mapping because i have a static 3x3 map. I have 2 DC motors with encoders and an Arduino and a PC, what packages do i use?

For the localization based on the odometry you can use: https://wiki.ros.org/robot_pose_ekf

You should implement the odometer as in the https://wiki.ros.org/navigation/Tutorials/RobotSetup#Odometry_Information_.28odometry_source.29

(Pr2Odometry code could be your base here)
