Hello Ajay Vyas
Nonlinear coefficient really depends upon n2(non-linear coefficient),Aeff of optical fiber.In the paper you have attached value of gamma is 2.09/w/Km for SMF and 6.04 in the case of DCF.Units of n2 is m2/W and for Aeff in um2.you can calculate gamma by using formula

Gamma=2*pi*n2/Wavelength*Aeff

Default value of n2 in SMF28 is 26e-21 and Aeff is 70um^2.Rest it vary according to application or alter by the manufacturer

Discussion already has done on this topic.Please check the link given below

Is this value for non linear coefficient practical?

Regards
