If you are aware of the beta process, the ‘a’ at the end means the release candidate is likely to be released the very next week (expected).

This means that iOS 15.5 RC can be released in the week of May 16 to May 20. And in a week iOS 15.5 Public Build (23-27 May) will be released.

This speculation is based on previous iOS releases and some facts. It's not official from Apple, but chances are high that it will be correct.
