Hi,
What is the difference between a white noise process and a random process?
Thank you

A white noise process has certain properties that a general random process need not possess. In particular a white noise process is a sequence of uncorrelated random variables each with a mean of 0 and sharing a common constant variance. A random process doesn't need to possess any of those three properties.
