You can use the tf_broadcaster to specify where the coordinate systems of your sensors are. The broadcaster will send these transforms to the tf tree so other nodes can use it. The tf_listener is used to query the tf tree. You can use a tf_listener if you want to know the transformation between two frames in the tf tree. But for your application, it doesn't seem like you need it.
