Revision history [back]

It is not directly specified by the model (the robot motion w.r.t the world may vary depending on your application). However, an external node usually provides the "base_link" to "world" frame (or other global frames, see REP 105). If you have a fixed manipulator then a static_transform_publisher is enough but if you have a mobile robot then you need a localization node that will estimate the robot motion.
