Imminent means "about to happen".
The naval and aerial activity has been occurring for years, and is not occurring in Taiwan's territorial waters or airspace. The aerial activity occurs in Taiwan's ADIZ. Some of Taiwan's ADIZ even includes parts of China.
An invasion, as opposed to an attack, would require more than a few boats and airplanes. You would have weeks if not months of activity visible on satellite before such an invasion could be launched.
Incidentally, China flies into Japan's ADIZ all the time and nobody is suggesting that a Chinese invasion of Japan is "imminent".
