Create a Socket connection between two programs running on different machines on the LAN. Send a lot of data (megabytes) from one to the other and record how long it takes.
You'll find all the info you need on Java Sockets by searching the web. Come back here if you get stuck.

Can we calculate the bandwidth by adding the file size and the network throughput? Is it a correct way..?

Bandwidth is Megabits or Megabytes (whichever you prefer) per second. So you divide the file size by the time. Eg 100 megabyte file takes 5 seconds, bandwidth is 20 MBytes/sec or 160 MBits/sec
